Provo

We spent the weekend in Provo with some of Raymond's best friends from high school, IT WAS SO FUN!! It's not often that we get to hang out with John & Erin or Clint & Tiffany but we always have fun. I am very grateful that both of their wives are easy to get along with because that means Raymond gets to see his friends and we all have a great time! We headed to Provo Friday night and had a BBQ and lots of laughs. We stayed the night at John & Erin's (THANK YOU GUYS!!) and then Saturday morning we had a delicious breakfast (THANKS TO ERIN) and then hit the Farmers Market. I am a huge fan of the market, seriously it makes me so happy! I bought a pair of earrings for $3, WAHOO!! We then hung out for a bit, seriously contemplating the answers to Laffy Taffy Jokes and Erin taught me the ropes of "Pinching Your Pennies" (She seriously is a whiz at it). We went to Orem's Summer Festival and saw some pretty cool old cars, lots of fun booths and games. We went to Tucano's for lunch which is amazing! I truly love the Brazilian Buffet, it beats Rodigio Grills trash anyday! Their meat is served straight off the scewer and onto your plate and their creme brulee is some of the best I have had in Utah! (Be sure to sign up for their Birthday Club because then you get a coupon for BOGO free!!) And conveniently situated right next to this gem is Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory. It was truly a day full of my favorite things!

John & Erin and their kiddos are headed to Texas at the end of the summer for Grad School, we are going to miss you guys but I am so excited to come visit! Seriously, just tell me when and I will buy tickets!! Clint & Tiffany thankfully are still in Utah for a bit longer, in the next couple weeks they will be adding Baby #4, yup thats right 4! They are great little parents and are so excited to finally be getting their girl! (Don't worry Tiffany, I am searching for where we can get a cheaper petty skirt!!)

On our way home we hit up Hollywood Video, they are going out of business which means lots of cheap movies! YAY! We cuddled up on the couch with take out and ended up watching three movies (ones we hadn't seen before which were no good but yet we now own) and had a great relaxing weekend! Thanks so much for letting us come hang out with you guys!! We need to go camping/4 wheeling/whatever again before the summer runs out!

I really wish I had taken pictures, but I didn't. Sorry.

it was so fun seeing you guys, we really shouldn't let it be so long between visits. Tucano's also has the best chocolate cake in the whole world :)
